Susan Brook argues that the history of Left literary and cultural
criticism in Britain is characterized by a systematic failure to
recognize the way it has been shaped by issues of gender, and that
it has been marked by a history of romanticizing the feeling male
body and excluding the "inauthentic" feminine. This study charts
the origins of the exclusion in the 1950s focusing on the fifties
cultural criticism associated with the New Left; the writing of the
so-called "angry young man" (such as Amis's "Lucky Jim" and John
Osborne's "Look Back in Anger"); and the much overlooked category
of women's writing of the period.
